@dragonmastery/daisypress-theme

A custom VitePress theme for DaisyUI 5 and DaisyBlocks.

Setup

1. Install the theme and its peer dependencies.
2. Required: Extend the base config so the theme builds correctly.

Option A: extends (recommended)

// .vitepress/config.ts
import { defineConfig } from 'vitepress'
import daisypressBaseConfig, {
  createBlogNav,
  createBlogTransformPageData,
  createChainedTransform,
  genFeed,
} from '@dragonmastery/daisypress-theme/config'

export default defineConfig({
  extends: daisypressBaseConfig,
  vite: {
    plugins: [tailwindcss()],
    server: { port: 5777 },
  },
  themeConfig: {
    nav: [createBlogNav({ ... })],
  },
  transformPageData: createChainedTransform([...]),
  buildEnd: async (config) => {
    await genFeed(config, { ... })
  },
})

Option B: Spread into vite

import { daisypressViteConfig, ... } from '@dragonmastery/daisypress-theme/config'

export default defineConfig({
  vite: {
    ...daisypressViteConfig,
    plugins: [tailwindcss()],
  },
  // ...
})

Why this is required

The theme uses VitePress client APIs (useData, useRoute, withBase). When consumed as a published package, the theme must be bundled by Vite during SSR instead of being loaded externally. The config sets ssr.noExternal: ['@dragonmastery/daisypress-theme'].

Without this, builds can fail with Cannot find module '.../vitepress/dist/client/app/data' in standalone projects.
